• Jason Kelce

The retired Super Bowl star gained mainstream popularity recently when news broke of his brother Travis Kelce's relationship with pop icon Taylor Swift. In an interview with People, DWTS pro Jenna Johnson called him her "dream partner." She said, "He just retired. I think it's the perfect thing. If his wife wants to do it with Val, we could definitely do that. I know that he has some kids, so we could bond over parenting and stuff."

• Jordan Chiles

After the gymnast got into controversey regarding her bronze medal at the Olympics, the show may be eyeing to cast her. Two of her teammates have previously competed on the show: Simone Biles and Suni Lee.

• Tom Sandoval

The Vanderpump Rules star gained a lot of negative attention when a scandal broke out that he cheated on his long-time girlfriend, Ariana Madix, who appeared on the show last year. On her podcast "Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans," she shared that DWTS and The Traitors share the same casting directors. Since Sandoval is already confirmed to appear on The Traitors season three, it's possible that he will participate in both shows.

• Stephen Nedoroscik (confirmed)

During the Paris Olympics, Stephen Nedoroscik became known as "Pommel Horse Guy" and gained widespread attention. When asked if he would consider participating in DWTS, the gymnast did not explicitly refuse.

• Cris Judd

Judd, who is best known for his brief marriage to Jennifer Lopez, may appear on the show, especially now that Lopez has filed for divorce from Ben Affleck. He had also won the first season of the American version of I'm a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!.

• Casper Smart

DWTS may be considering potentially casting Casper Smart, another one of J-Lo's exes. Smart used to be Lopez's backup dancer, and they started dating in 2011 after she separated from Marc Anthony.

• Kelly Ripa

When current co-host Julianne Hough was asked who her dream DWTS casting choice would be, she mentioned Kelly Ripa. "I feel like Kelly Ripa would be an amazing person on the show. She's a dancer, she's vivacious. She would pick it up. She would have so much fun with it. She wouldn't take herself too seriously. So I'm rooting for Kelly to come on," she said.

• Gypsy Rose Blanchard

Blanchard was released from jail in December 2023 after she served time for the murder of her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard. She got a plea deal after attorneys discovered she was abused by her mother and a victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy. She went viral and appeared on a number of shows, including the Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up docuseries. While she is a perfect candidate for DWTS, it may not be possible since she's currently pregnant.

• A Baby Reindeer Cast Member (Richard Gadd and Jessica Gunning)

The Netflix show, created by Richard Gadd and starring Gadd and Jessica Gunning, is about a former lawyer who obsessively follows a bartender. There are rumors that DWTS is looking to cast someone from the Emmy-nominated show, and either Gadd or Gunning could be chosen.

• Joan Vassos

Vassos first appeared as a contestant on The Golden Bachelor and will return soon as the first-ever lead of The Golden Bachelorette. According to The Daily Mail, Joan may appear on two ABC reality shows later this year, which means this show might be one of them.

• Shohei Ohtani

The show was rumored to be interested in the Los Angeles Dodgers star, but it's unlikely he'll participate. The MLB season goes until the end of September, and the Dodgers are in first place in the National League West, putting them in a good position to qualify for the postseason.

• Ilona Maher (confirmed)

The women's rugby team made headlines at the Olympics by winning a bronze medal. Ilona Maher, one of the team's standout players, gained a large following on Instagram. Interestingly, she recently started following the DWTS Instagram account, sparking speculation that she may appear on the show.

• Sutton Stracke

A gossip site called Bravo and Cocktails featured an anonymous tip about the The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star appearing on DWTS. It said, "ABC has signed the newest Southern fan favorite of Bravo’s Real Housewives of Beverly Hills up to dance on Dancing with The Stars, her huge popularity and quirky personality will keep people entertained next season."

• Parvati Shallow

In a Parade interview, the Survivor star expressed her interest in participating in a performance-based reality show. Fans also noticed that the DWTS Instagram account favorited a video of Parvati from the Survivor account in December.

• Gerry Turner

The Golden Bachelor may appear on the show since it's a well-known fact that DWTS usually features someone from Bachelor Nation.

• Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes

Although it would be unusual for the couple to appear on an ABC show after being previously let go from the network, and they were even turned down from DWTS when suggested last year, there are still rumors that they could be on season 33.

• Joey Graziadei (confirmed)

Graziadei was The Bachelor in season 28 of the show and first appeared on Charity Lawson's season of The Bachelorette. He mentioned on Jason Tartrick's podcast Trading Secrets that he anticipated receiving a large sum of money soon, leading some to speculate that he might be offered a significant amount to participate in Dancing with the Stars.

• A TikTok Star

The Daily Mail stated that some TikTok stars were being considered to appear in Season 33 of the show, but we are not sure who.

• Biden, Harris, or Trump Relative

With the upcoming US elections, it would be a wise choice for the show to cast a relative of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, or Donald Trump.
